About
This is a single group, treatment, Phase 3, open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of caplacizumab and immunosuppressive therapy (IST) without firstline therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) with primary endpoint of remission in male and female participants aged 18 to 80 years with immune-mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP).
The anticipated study duration per participant without a recurrence while on therapy is maximum 24 weeks (ie, approximately 1 day for screening + maximum 12 weeks of treatment for the presenting episode + 12 weeks of follow-up). Participants will have daily assessments during hospitalization and weekly visits for assessments during ongoing treatment with caplacizumab and IST. There will be 3 outpatient visits for assessments during the follow-up period. There will be two additional follow-up visits for participants who do not have ADAMTS13 activity levels of ≥50% at the time of caplacizumab discontinuation.
Full description
The anticipated study duration per participant with the presenting episode therefore is a maximum of about 24 weeks (ie, 1 day of screening + maximum 12 weeks of treatment for the presenting episode + 12 weeks of follow-up).

Inclusion criteria
Participants with a clinical diagnosis of iTTP (initial or recurrent), which includes thrombocytopenia, microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (eg, presence of schistocytes in peripheral blood smear) and relatively preserved renal function. The iTTP diagnosis should be confirmed by ADAMTS13 testing within 48 hours (2 days).
Participants with a clinical diagnosis of iTTP and a French TMA score of 1 or 2.
A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and one of the following conditions applies:
Male participants with female partners of childbearing potential must agree to follow the contraceptive guidance as per protocol during the overall treatment period and for at least 2 months after last study drug administration.
Exclusion criteria
Platelet count ≥100 x 10^9/L. Serum creatinine level >2.26 mg/dL (200 µmol/L) in case platelet count is >30 x 10^9/L (to exclude possible cases of atypical HUS).
Known other causes of thrombocytopenia including but not limited to:
Inherited or acquired coagulation disorders. Malignant arterial hypertension. Participants requiring or expected to require invasive procedures immediately (eg, stroke requiring thrombolytic therapy, those who need mechanical ventilation, etc.).
Those presenting with severe neurological or cardiac disease. Clinical condition other than that associated with TTP, with life expectancy <6 months, such as end-stage malignancy.
Known chronic treatment with anticoagulants and anti-platelet drugs that cannot be stopped (interrupted) safely, including but not limited to:
Participants who received an investigational drug, or device, other than caplacizumab, within 30 days of anticipated IMP administration or 5 half-lives of the previous investigational drug, whichever is longer.
Positive result on COVID test.
